ETS 2 – Nordic Horizons DLC – Scandinavian forests
The first blog post has been published for the Nordic forests featured in the Nordic Horizons DLC for ETS 2. Since the Nordic forests of Norway, Sweden, and Finland are some of Europe’s most beautiful and ecologically rich areas, the SCS Software team is sharing various new screenshots.
The northern regions of Finland, Sweden, and Norway share similar forest biomes. However, as we journey from south to north in these regions, we’ll notice some differences in how these forests have grown. In the northernmost parts of the region, the forests are characterized by sparse and open landscapes. Cold temperatures and a short growing season limit tree size and density, resulting in trees that grow more slowly and often live for many years. Together, these forests represent a beautiful tapestry of nature, showcasing the resilience and diversity of the boreal biome, from the majesty of the northern taiga to the vibrant woodlands in the south. These forests are vital for local wildlife and biodiversity, and they also provide a source of life and livelihood for those living in these remote parts of the world.
In the south, you can find denser and taller forests that benefit from milder temperatures and a longer growing season. The variety of tree species in these areas results in vibrant, green, and lush forests.
While the upcoming Nordic Scandinavia map expansion for Euro Truck Simulator 2 may not yet have revealed highly exciting images, all focus will shift here after the Greece DLC. You can add the Nordic Horizons DLC, which we expect to release by the end of 2025, to your wishlist.
